Cisco IE 2000 IP67 IE-2000-16T67P-G-E 16-Port PoE+ Industrial Ethernet Switch with 2x 1G M12, LAN Base

The Cisco IE 2000 IP67 IE-2000-16T67P-G-E has sixteen Fast Ethernet (10/100) copper downlink ports, eight of which are PoE-capable: four support up to IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and the rest deliver IEEE 802.3af PoE. PoE is not drawn from an internal budget; the switch is powered by the external IP67-rated PWR-IE160W-67-DC DC-DC supply, a sealed 160 W unit that feeds the powered ports, with the 16-port PoE model carrying a 0.2 kVA power rating and a listed power consumption of 137-150 W. Because power is delivered per port by capability rather than from a single shared wattage figure, the number of devices you can run depends on each endpoint's draw. The two Gigabit copper M12 uplink ports do not provide PoE.

The IE-2000-16T67P-G-E has no pluggable SFP optics. On the sealed IP67 chassis the two Gigabit uplinks are fixed copper ports terminated with sealed M12 X-coded connectors, and the sixteen Fast Ethernet downlinks use M12 D-coded copper connectors. There are no SFP or SFP+ cages, so transceiver compatibility does not apply to this model; all connectivity is copper over M12. Cabling is made with the corresponding M12-terminated copper cordsets rather than fiber or pluggable modules.

No. The Cisco IE 2000 IP67 IE-2000-16T67P-G-E does not support switch stacking. High availability on this platform comes from ring-based Layer 2 redundancy instead: Cisco Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) and Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) rings, together with the dual-power connector, provide fast recovery without stacking. If you need resilient connectivity, deploy the switch in a REP or MRP ring rather than a stack.

Both switches are fully sealed IP67 PoE models in the same family and share the LAN Base license, Cisco IOS, two Gigabit copper M12 uplinks, and the external PWR-IE160W-67-DC power supply. The difference is downlink density and PoE capacity. The IE-2000-16T67P-G-E provides sixteen Fast Ethernet downlinks with eight PoE-capable ports, four of them PoE+, for a total of eighteen ports. The IE-2000-8T67P-G-E provides eight Fast Ethernet downlinks, four of them PoE-capable up to PoE+, for a total of ten ports. Choose the 16-port model where more powered devices terminate in one sealed enclosure and the 8-port model for smaller cells.

The IE-2000-16T67P-G-E ships with the LAN Base license, which provides Layer 2 switching plus IPv4 static routing (making it a Layer 2+ switch), REP and MRP ring resiliency, IEEE 1588v2 PTP, and security features such as 802.1x, DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and IP source guard. Two field upgrades extend it: the Enhanced LAN Base image adds Layer 2 1:1 static NAT (L2NAT), and the IP Lite license adds IPv4 dynamic routing with RIP, OSPF, EIGRP, and VRF Lite plus IPv6 static routing and OSPFv3. Full dynamic routing and Layer 2 NAT are not included at the LAN Base level; each requires its respective upgrade.

No. The switch runs on its perpetual LAN Base Cisco IOS image indefinitely. A Cisco DNA Essentials (Cisco Catalyst Center) term subscription, available in 3-, 5-, and 7-year options, is optional management software that adds centralized automation, assurance, and inventory; it is not required to operate the switch. The IE-2000-16T67P-G-E keeps switching on its LAN Base license whether or not that subscription is active, and base operation continues after the term ends.

The Cisco IE 2000 IP67 IE-2000-16T67P-G-E is IP67-rated per EN60529 for protection against dust and water submersion, and it is wall-mountable and requires no cabinet housing. Its operating temperature depends on the enclosure: -40°C to +70°C in a vented enclosure, -40°C to +60°C in a sealed enclosure, and -34°C to +75°C in a fan- or blower-equipped enclosure (200 LFM or more). The PoE model accepts a DC input of 44-57 VDC for PoE and 50-57 VDC for PoE+. The switch is tested to shock and vibration standards including IEC 60068-2-6, IEC 60068-2-27, and EN 61373, making it suitable for factory floors, rolling stock, and outdoor work sites.

Yes. Cisco has announced End-of-Sale for the Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 IP67 Series. The last date to order the IE-2000-16T67P-G-E through Cisco was July 26, 2024, and Cisco's last date of support is July 31, 2029; support and service remain available until that date. For new deployments, Cisco's industrial migration guidance points to the Catalyst IE3400 Heavy Duty (IP67) switches in the Catalyst IE3x00 rugged series as the successor platform.

The Cisco IE 2000 IP67 IE-2000-16T67P-G-E is sold new and factory-sealed. It is covered by a Network Devices Inc. one-year warranty and a 30-day return policy.
